Believe me, they are CHEAP. I've never had as many pierced primers as with those imports. AND I was using them in light 3/4 oz. loads.
I've long-since switched to Federals, and over many thousands of rounds, have NEVER experienced a pierced primer or failure to fire.
Moral: Buy reliable American components, put your mind at ease, and skip one Happy Meal a week to cover the added cost.

IT's funny how we have different luck with the same reloading components, I shoot nothing but cheddites and I have never pierced a primmer over thousands shots or a pierced primmer with any I have used but shoot light loads too.
